A surgeon was in deep discussion with a horticulturist

On whether or not the immortal soul does actually exist

The medic began “I have been a surgeon for many a year

And after many operations I would like to make it clear

After having cut every conceivable part of a human being

I can say without doubt that I don’t remember ever seeing

Or finding anything that you could possibly ever compare

To an immortal soul within the human body anywhere”

The horticulturist then responded to him in this form

Saying “If I were to cut into a flower bulb, tuber or corm

I would not be able to see any sign of a flower anywhere

But we both know a beautiful flower dwells within there”
